Chapter 39 An Accident
But when they were about to go from the fifth floor to the fourth floor, Tessa broke a bamboo pole and
almost fell down from the fourth floor. Ms. Leopard reacted quickly and grabbed her hand. As soon as
Tessa steadied herself with her feet hooked by the bamboo pole beside her, the man who chased after
them immediately shot Ms. Leopard in the abdomen.
Seeing that Tessa had stood firm, Ms. Leopard pulled out her pistol from her waist and shot the man's
head. Covering the wound in her belly, she climbed to the fourth floor with Tessa. They ran to the west
of the fourth floor and climbed to the ground quickly from the bamboo pole there.
Muriel and Lindy were standing on the top floor, rehearsing the lines with each other. Max was tying the
wire for Lindy, and another man was putting a cushion under Muriel's clothes. There was a pigment bag
on the cushion. When Ms. Leopard was shot, the bag of paint would be broken, and then the bloody
scene of being shot would be shot.
As soon as the paint bag was ready, Max standing next to Muriel immediately went up to tie up the wire
for her. Seeing the scratch on his hand, Muriel pretended to be surprised and grabbed his arm and
asked, "Oh my God, what's wrong with your hand?"
Max was so nervous that he wanted to withdraw his hand immediately. But when he thought that if he
reacted too violently, it would make everyone suspect him, so he could only restrain his violent
heartbeat and explain, "It's bitten by mosquitoes."
Lindy looked at Muriel strangely and then looked at Max's arm. "Mosquitoes here are so horrible. It
seems that I have to apply more mosquito repellent."
Muriel loosened her grip on Max. Seeing that Muriel and Lindy didn't say anything, Max let out a sigh of
relief and continued to tie up the wire for Muriel.
The script covered Muriel's face, and no one saw the coldness in her eyes. When she grabbed Max's
arm, she saw the obvious needle hole on it. Judging from the expression on his face, he was obviously
a drug addict.
Muriel and Lindy were ready. Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the film set. Director Quentin
impatiently took off his headphones and asked, "What are you doing? Who is making a fuss? "
A group of girls' screams were getting closer and closer. Everyone craned their necks out of curiosity
and saw Richard walking into the film set under the protection of the crowd. Several security guards
closed the door and blocked the sight of the anthomaniac girls.
Director Quentin saw the person and hurried to shake hands with Richard. "Mr. Xu, long time no see.
Why are you here today?"
The producer who was walking beside Richard explained with a smile, "Star Culture has invested a lot
of money in Star Culture. Mr. Xu wants to see the shooting."
Richard fixed his eyes on Muriel, who was on the top floor of the building under the scorching sun. He
frowned and said to the director, "I'll just sit aside and have a look. You can continue to shoot."
"Okay." Director Quentin went back to his seat, put on his headphones and gave orders to the crew.
Richard looked at the building worriedly, "Have you taken the safety precautions?"
The producer explained, "Safety measures must be put in the first place. Don't worry."
"Action."
"Climb down quickly." Ms. Leopard knocked out a guy on the top floor and followed Tessa to climb
down the bamboo pole.
When they arrived at the marked spot, Lindy stepped on it, and the bamboo pole broke off. Lindy
missed the target and fell down immediately.
"Ah!" Lindy was not acting, but screamed nervously in her heart.
In a flash, Ms. Leopard grabbed Tessa's arm, but her scream exposed their position.
"They are here. Come here quickly."
According to the script, Lindy stood firm on a bamboo pole, but as soon as her foot touched the
bamboo pole, it suddenly broke. How could it be broken?
Muriel sensed that something was wrong and was about to call out the the director. The "gangster guy"
also climbed down. He took out his gun and shot at the back of Ms. Leopard.
"Bang!"
The bullet was shot into the back of Muriel, and the severe pain spread all over her nerves. It was a
real gun!
The man on the top floor looked at the gun in his hand in surprise. He had used all kinds of stage props
in many movies, but it was the first time that he had seen a pistol with such a strong vibration.
The people on the ground were also shocked by the gunshot. Richard looked at Muriel worriedly.
Hanging in the air, Lindy saw the blood oozing from Muriel's abdomen dripped on her lips. She pursed
her lips by accident, and a smell of blood filled her whole taste bud.
This, this was not the taste of red pigment, but the taste of blood!
Blood was oozing from the corner of Muriel's mouth. She said in a hoarse voice, "I... I was shot! It's a
real gun! "
Lindy looked at the blood at the corner of Muriel's mouth in disbelief. She really wanted Muriel to tell
her that it was her trick. But when she was on the roof just now, she didn't see Muriel drinking blood.
Panicked, Lindy shouted downstairs, "Cut."
Noticing that something was wrong, Richard stood up and looked at Muriel with deep eyes.
Director Quentin looked at the camera in confusion, "Cut, let's go to the fourth floor and see what's
wrong."
Lindy tried to hook the bamboo poles nearby, but all of them were so fragile that they broke easily when
touched by her feet. She screamed again.
"Don't move. I can't hold on any longer." Muriel's face turned pale and her belly bled more and more.
She began to feel dizzy.
According to the rules, the pistol should be a fake one. At that time, the pigment bag should be broken,
but now she was really shot. The bamboo pole, which had only been marked before, was broken with a
single step.
Obviously, the murderer was well prepared. Muriel didn't dare to let her hand go. She was worried that
there was something wrong with the wire. If she let her hand go, Lindy would fall from the fourth floor,
dead or disabled.
Lindy was so frightened that she burst into tears. "Pull us up. Muriel was shot. She bled a lot."
As soon as Richard heard that Muriel was shot, he rushed to the building in a hurry.
The people on the ground were shocked when they heard Lindy's words. Director Quentin hurriedly
shouted to the crew, "Hurry up and pull Muriel and Lindy up."
"Damn it! The wire is broken and can't be pulled up."
"Damn it!" Director Quentin cursed angrily.
"Ah!" In a daze, Muriel's hand slipped. But she immediately came to her senses and held the railing
tightly again. The hanging bodies of her and Lindy in the air frightened the people on the ground and
screamed. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Lindy's heart beat fast when she saw Muriel holding her hand tightly. If Muriel didn't catch her, she
would fall to death. Looking at Muriel's pale face, she burst into tears.
A man ran from the top floor to the fourth floor, climbed to the bamboo pole in a hurry. He reached out
his hand to Lindy.
